GDPR Basics for Business
Designed to meet business’s basic training requirements.
Why is this training needed?
Every business is required to supply each of its employees with appropriate annual data protection training which is proportionate to their job role. This is vital as staff working in any position could potentially encounter and cause a data breach.
There are countless real-life examples of employees making a simple error which leads to significant sanctions or consequences for the business. With only 72 hours to report a data breach, proper training is crucial to preventing employees from causing breaches, as well as knowing what to do and who to contact in the event that a data security issue should arise.
Our GDPR Basics course has been created by a team of expert barristers to ensure your team members at all levels throughout the business are properly equipped to meet legally required compliance standards quickly and easily.
